No bar whatsoever. MAGAs are thugs.

I do believe once prices go higher, that will make them turn.

No. There is no dog s&*t that MAGA won’t lap up and exclaim is perfect.

Nope. MAGA would defend him, even if he did that. That 4-D chess logic.

What's your wager?

Lots of MAGA are angry and their GOP reps decided against town halls. I guess they tell themselves the angry peeps are all liberal actors. Like they did with J6, until those guys were pardoned. OP-there is no logic. Trump and his administration have made it so no GOP rep is allowed to disagree or they get called names and threatened. Like an authoritarian state. History isn’t going be too kind to these people.


Stop giving Congress a way out! Trump and his administration didn’t make it so they couldn’t disagree. The GOP’s cowardice and greed made this so. And until I see everyday GOP rallying to select different people to Congress and office in their states I’m of the opinion they are fine with the problems and pain. Don’t come crying to anyone else until you clean up your own house.

The Senate isn't going to cut Medicaid. People are worried, yes, but not panicking. Because the Senate isn't going to do any of these cuts.


I'm not holding my breath on Rick Scott and John Barasso. Or Mike Lee. Or Ted Cruz.

Their donors want their cuts even if the math doesn't work for the rest of us.

Republicans are telling him, privately and publicly, No. This is too far.

Is this the beginning of additional or tightening boundaries? I suspect that Republicans, like everyone else, are waiting on the Supreme Court. After that, we'll see.


The Supreme Court isn't saving us that is for sure.

It’s sad, but better to know the truth. It’s up to us. The GOP will not save us from a Trump dictatorship.


I'm so over people burying their heads in the sand about this.
